Out of the box
Impose a charge for sending email
I suggest that the sender has to pay a charge of 1 cent for every email that is sent out and the recipient will receive 0.5 cent. The email platform can share the remaining 0.5 cent.
By imposing this charge, people will be considerate in sending out messages. This will control the amount of spam that is sent out.
In the past, the sender has to send a message by post. The cost of using the postal service is probably $1 per message. The cost of 1 cent is miniscule.
As the sender has to pay the charge, the sender has to be a real person. It should not be a fake person.
The receiver cannot cash the credit of 0.5 cent. Instead, the receiver can use this credit to send out messages to other people. They only have to pay a fee when they exhaust their credit.
This charge is likely to put the email platform on a proper footing. Currently, it is not preferred due to the abuse of spamming.

anything online should be free and not imposed with charges.
